Firesteel with Magnesium Bar - Wooden Handle - Cuma Gear

Firesteel with Magnesium Bar and Wooden Handle – Effective firesteel with magnesium for extra easy fire starting.

Attractive firesteel with built-in magnesium bar.

A firesteel with a magnesium bar has the advantage that you can ignite your tinder material extra easily. Magnesium (when scraped into small flakes) has the ability to ignite easily and create a high temperature, which makes it much easier to get your fire going with a firesteel.

How to use a firesteel with magnesium bar

A magnesium bar adds an extra layer of efficiency to your firesteel, so with a magnesium bar you are always ready to start a fire, no matter the conditions.

Here’s how to use it correctly:

1. Use a striker or the back of your knife to scrape a small pile of magnesium flakes off the bar – about the size of a US nickel.
2. Place the flakes on your tinder material, such as birch bark, cotton wool, or dry moss or grass.
3. Use the Ferrocerium part of the firesteel (the black part – the actual firesteel) and the striker to produce sparks directly onto the magnesium pile.
4. The magnesium will ignite with a strong flame, quickly igniting your tinder.

This sturdy firesteel with built-in magnesium bar and natural wood handle is the ideal tool for outdoor enthusiasts. The combination of firesteel and magnesium gives you a reliable and effective way to start fires – even in rain, snow, or high humidity.

Thanks to the size of the wooden handle, the firesteel fits comfortably in your hand and is easy to operate, even with cold or wet fingers.

The striker on the firesteel has several extra features; it acts as a scraper and also has small 'eyes' that make it possible to loosen nuts and more.
